Effects of IVF on the body
IVF refers to the process of culturing the fertilized eggs to the appropriate development stage in the laboratory through artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization technology, and then implanting the embryos into the mother's uterus for development. The emergence of assisted reproductive technology has helped many infertile couples realize their dream of becoming parents. However, the production of IVF has a certain impact on the female body, which needs our attention and protection.
Impact 1: hormone therapy and ovulation
During the treatment before IVF, women may need hormone therapy to promote the development and maturation of eggs. These hormones have a certain burden on the body, which may lead to side effects, such as mood fluctuations, headache, abdominal distension, etc. In addition, hormone therapy may increase the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Therefore, before IVF, women should understand the risks and precautions in the treatment process through communication with doctors to ensure health and safety.

Impact 2: Operation risk and physical consumption
During IVF, women may need to undergo endometrial surgery or follicle puncture surgery. These operations have certain risks, such as infection, bleeding and other complications. Anesthetics are also used during the operation, which also has a certain burden on the body. In addition, during the whole treatment process, women need to undergo multiple prenatal examinations and operations, which is a physical and mental challenge. Therefore, before IVF, women should maintain a good physical and mental state, take adequate rest and nutrition supplements, and strengthen the body's resistance.

Impact 3: Hormone changes and mood fluctuations
During IVF, women need hormone treatment, which will lead to dramatic changes in hormone levels. Hormone changes may lead to mood fluctuations, such as anxiety, irritability, depression, etc. This emotional fluctuation has a negative impact on women's physical health. Therefore, in the process of IVF, women should actively pay attention to their emotional changes, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, and seek appropriate psychological support and counseling.

Impact 4: physiological and psychological pressure
The process of IVF is a hard journey for women. Because of the hope on which women are born, the desire and mental burden for children, as well as the pressure from family, society and themselves, may affect women's physical and mental health. Therefore, in the process of IVF, women should learn to relax, maintain psychological balance, communicate more with doctors and people around them, and cope with pressure together.
Summary
The IVF process is not only a physical test, but also a psychological challenge. When facing this process, women should first understand and accept the risks and precautions of treatment, maintain good communication with doctors, and protect their own health. Secondly, we should make full physical preparations to improve the body's resistance and reduce the risk of surgery. In addition, we also need to actively pay attention to our emotional changes, seek psychological support, and maintain psychological balance and relaxation. Finally, we should learn to work with our family and society to cope with the pressure brought by this process and protect our physical and mental health.
